Not non-speakers' moms sharing their kids' testimonies supporting eugenicist policy. These statements are the most damning evidence against facilitated communication I have seen yet.

When the cultural revolution comes to America it wears...

Unfortunately, the clown car is packed with scary clowns.

Discovering that an East Coast bus company is run by a Chinese American is like discovering that a pizza joint is owned by an Italian. (If Laura spots a protester eating pizza, maybe she'll add the mafia to her story.)

Heads are going to roll, but not his.

*cocks gun* looks like there's no more time to fix your heart

Is thinking you live in the most embarrassing country in the history of the world a form of American exceptionalism? Or is it just true?

Elon Musk’s involvement in Wisconsin has turned what could have been a sleepy off-year election into a race with incredible national significance. “The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is the first referendum on Musk-ism." Read @ariberman.bsky.social's dispatch.

Dems, you can either become the opposition party or you will be the Vichy party. I don't make the rules.

Look I feel like I shouldn’t have to say this but if you’re a liberal and the president is like “We are going to detain and deport this guy for protesting” the correct response is not “Protesting what?”

"When leftist discourse fails to examine how capitalist market structures actively generate disease, that analytical gap is readily filled by right-libertarian wellness culture." Dave Meesters open.substack.com/pub/radicalv...

radicalvitalism.substack.com/p/reclaiming... We refuse to cede the territory of holistic health to the grifters. This is the first of a multi-part series on the topic from Dave Meesters.

For those of us who grew up in the cold war '80s, the shift from "we would rather nuke the world than let Russia win" to "they are the only ones we can trust" is surreal.

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

James Webb Satellite took a fantastic shot of the Planet Saturn with it's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This is just an Amazing shot that shows the planet and the rings in brilliant detail.

You are going to see a lot of tributes to Audre Lorde for her birthday. Many will leave off two of the words she regularly used to describe herself. Yes she identified as a black lesbian poet but don't forget her other chosen descriptors: revolutionary and socialist. 🧵

excuse me i need a time traveller from like 7 years in the future to show up and tell me what to do

Such an elegant way to heavily imply a mountain of nudes

The level of failure of the political press right now is going to be studied in literal history books for years

A lot of the graphics I made during the Biden era hit slightly different now justseeds.org/graphic/the-...

Clear-eyed assessment of the current moment.

"Aggressively lying down on the train tracks" is a perfect summary of the Democrats www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

Reminder that in the first Nazi book and document burning, they incinerated the records of the Berlin Institute of Sexology, destroying valuable research on and histories of the lives of their LGBT participants.

As Tom Homan doubles-down on claims that ICE will raid schools, protesters hit the streets of cities across the US and students organize school walkouts to demand an end to #ICE raids. Check out roundup here: itsgoingdown.org/protests-and...

Overton window flung wide open.

These 8 Democrats just voted last night to advance the nomination of Kristi Noem for DHS Secretary: John Fetterman (D-PA) Maggie Hassan (D-NH) Tim Kaine (D-VA) Andy Kim (D-NJ) Gary Peters (D-MI) Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) Raphael Warnock (D-GA)

23 days in and it’s not looking good my dudes

People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states. To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.

Day three.

The only health care reforms we are going to see fron this administration are increased insurance rates, decreased protections for all, more privatization, less safety nets, and of course a war on reproductive autonomy. It's beginning on day one.

David Lynch: The Art Life documentary is streaming free on the Criterion Channel

was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch

Fanta was created so coke could sell soda in nazi Germany around a trade embargo. IBM sold the machines that were used to track and tabulate holocaust victims. Henry Ford inspired Hitler. Big business has always collaborated with fascism. Today's businesses are bastards who are no different.

UnitedHealth CEO was killed 30 days ago on Dec 4. Mangione is on trial for that killing. Since Dec 4, about 5589 Americans have died preventable deaths under America’s exploitative for profit health system. So—when do CEOs who enabled these deaths go on trial? www.qasimrashid.com/p/americas-h...

Amazon has denied a leave of absence to an Alabama woman who was struck by the New Orleans attacker’s truck and shot in the foot during the attack. She worried she won’t have a job to return to when she recovers. www.nola.com/news/crime_p...

More than 10,000 people died trying to reach Spain by sea in 2024, per @caminandofronteras.bsky.social EU border policy working as designed

Do you have it in you to make it epic?

“Viable” explosion devices were found after a man who intentionally drove into a crowd of New Year's revelers in New Orleans, killing at least 10 and wounding 35 The FBI is investigating the attack as an “act of terror”

The city of New Orleans uses the Mississippi River as drinking water. Our current governor begged the state to remove funding from the city of New Orleans to fix the pumps and the decaying sewage and water system UNTIL the DA agrees to prosecute women for abortions. www.essence.com/news/louisia...

Wait, when were they hiding behind a veneer of respectability?

A journalist who understands the basics of epidemiology and knows the history of the anti-vaxx movement would demonstrate that lower vaccination rates *always* lead to whooping cough outbreaks. There is ample evidence of this.

The thing about Vivek's "white Americans are being pushed towards mediocrity by the culture" argument is its also the thesis of Hillbilly Elegy
